Issue Date: | 2015 | Volume: | European Planetary Science Congress 2015 (EPCS) | First Page: | 629 | Abstract: | There is a high degree of diversity among the physical properties of the Potentially Hazardous asteroids (PHAs). For these objects, the physical characterization is essential to define a successful mitigation mission, therefore ground-based surveys like NEO-SURFACE could provide a fundamental contribution. Our analysis suggest a prevalence of silicate S-types in the PHA population, which could be due in principle to the high efficiency of the transport mechanisms in the inner main belt, or to an observational bias due to the fact that S-types are brighter. <P /> | Conference Name: | European Planetary Science Congress 2015 (EPCS) | Conference Place: | Nantes | Conference Date: | 27 September - 2 October, 2015 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/23216 | Bibcode ADS: | 2015EPSC...10..629I | Fulltext: | open |
